Notes

  1. More usually genitive, as in the passage which has presumably prompted the present entry with its aorist subjunctive: Euripides, Hecuba 344 ('I see you hiding your right hand beneath your robe and turning away your face, so that I would not touch your beard.'). See generally LSJ s.v. prosqigga/nw.
